China Tries to Teach Trump Economics (opens in new tab)

China has chosen not to engage with this president and expects the American people to make a wiser decision in the next election round.

Well he learned protectionist policies from China and seems to be going ok. It's weird that so many westerns are adamant we are wrong in this situation.

> The Chinese, by contrast, have yet to deploy anything like the full range of tools at their disposal to offset Trump’s actions and hurt his political base.

A technically correct but very misleading sentence, given China's unapologetic protectionism: https://www.forbes.com/sites/douglasbulloch/2016/10/12/prote...

But then it's par for the course to ignore that when talking of US trade policy (https://www.reuters.com/article/us-imf-worldbank-china/china...)

Ha, I mistook the subject to mean China tries to teach "Trump Economics" and thought, what's that?

Is there an alternative link? Something without paywall?
